To me, all movies are very personal.

All of a sudden they just started doing program films, and then, six, seven years down the line it's like, whatever originality, whatever special personality that they had, doesn't exist any more.

I just have to have something to do. I could live 'til 100.

A writer should have this little voice inside of you saying, Tell the truth. Reveal a few secrets here.

As a viewer, the minute I start getting confused, I check out of the movie. Emotionally, I'm severed.

Anything can be made funny. Humor is a magnifying glass for us to look at society, ourselves, our personalities, our problems. Humor is what we need to actually observe things.

I was trying to create the most exciting action sequence in the history of cinema. It took me about a year to write the final fight sequence alone.

Whatever success I've got has come after like eight years of just nothing working out, trying to get a job in film.

Everything I learned as an actor, I have basically applied to writing.
